composition of the vessel

and sometimes in the darkness,
we strive to shine our light.
however small the arc –
regardless the distance of shadows cast.
 
by some,
our contribution considered courageous –
uncompromising.
for however long the assigned tenure,
we share accommodation –
travel in search of sunrise –
dawn’s reprieve from what seems never-ending midnight.
it’s those alliances shared without conflict of obligation that nurture hope –
rekindle fires of compassion from embers of deceit.
 
yet,
sometimes –
in the darkness –
our light,
diminished,
compromised.
what purpose –
then –
the striking of the match?
 
more relevant, to be considered necessary –
unassuming –
valued for the composition of the vessel –
regardless temporal accoutrement of perceived illumination…
